'A quintessential slice of Yuletide murder mystery' - Sun

'The feel-good factor is off the scale' - The Times

'A fun book. Playful. One to make you smile' - Stuart MacBride

A village of secrets. It's December 1952, and a dead stranger has been found lodged up the chimney of Holly House in the snow-covered town of Elderby. Is he a simple thief, or a would-be killer? Either way, he wasn't on anyone's Christmas wish-list.

A mystery that can't be solved. Inspector Frank Grasby is ordered to investigate. But as is often the way for him, things don't go according to plan.

A Christmas to remember. When the local doctor's husband is murdered, Grasby begins to realise that everyone in Elderby is hiding something - and if he can't uncover the truth soon, the whole country will pay a dreadful price...
